Participants will enjoy hands-on experience
with a 600-gallon biogas digester. This is not a demonstration model,
but a working digester that converts organic waste from approximately
25 people at Maitreya Ecovillage in Eugene, Oregon into clean-burning
biogas for year round cooking fuel and high-quality fertilizer and soil
amendment for gardening.
